I'm of the opposite mindset. I would love to see OMS have 100 or 125 clones to make them last longer and standard have 75 or 80. The close matches you get are really enjoyable so let them play out a little longer. I ran exclusively Ambush today and of all my matches, I believe there was one where a team has 20+ clones at termination. If it is within 20 on an OMS, then it is a close match, and that extended time gives people more of an opportunity to get an OB that may turn the tables. If there is a protostomp going on, it really shouldn't take that much longer. Longer match = more WP = more SP. What is wrong with that?

nah its been quite a regular occurance recently. even some 50 ticket ambush have gone on for so long. part of the problem on 50 tickets is that the maps are too large. you spend most of it tryign to actually find the reddots. even with a scanner and a scout running the perimeter it can still be a nuisance.

with OMS i've noticed more and more games lasting til at least the 5min remaining mark whereas before a match would last around 5-7mins.

Yeah i always try work out where each team spawns on a map, sometimes it'll throw a curve ball at ya. on of the rsearch maps it throws each team at other ends outside the map and that can be a long wait as everyone meets up. i just think the old Ambush maps were a great size for infantry only. they were only increaed to allow the vehicles more room to run away and so i think they can be reduced back to half of what they are now.

on average i used to have an ambush match last 7mins but since the WB has been upped to 5k that has creeated an increase in survivabilty too which is why i think if maps were smaller gametime would balance out.
